This cat-scratching station can be positioned at an angle or flat, allowing felines to satisfy their instinctual urge to claw in their preferred posture. Two separate scratching surfaces brace against each other or fold flat in seconds, allowing cats to scratch while lying down, standing on all fours, or on their hind legs. Made from tightly woven, dense sisal, the scratching surface encourages vigorous play. The frame is made from solid pine and constructed with a 23 long x 10 wide base and has non-slip feet, ensuring optimal stability as cats climb and stretch. Flat: 2 H x 10 W x 23 L. Angled: 15 1/4 H x 10 W x 23 L. (5 lbs.).

The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute determined this sun hat to be the best available for sun protection. From Tilley Endurables, Canada's premier purveyor of travel clothing for over 25 years, the hat outscored nine other hats in UV protection tests conducted by an independent testing laboratory, earning a 50+ UPF rating--the highest-possible--for its ability to block 98% of harmful UV rays. The front and back of the brim extend to 3 1/4 from the crown to protect the face and neck while the sides protect ears by extending to 2 1/2. It is made of tightly woven yet breathable 100% nylon with a durable weather and stain repellant finish. The crown and brim have a layer of closed-cell foam that provides buoyancy; a secret pocket secures currency and IDs. The vented mesh crown provides superior heat release while a built in sweat band wicks away moisture. The hat scored best for wearability after withstanding five washings without shrinking; can be easily cleaned with cold water and soap, and air-dried. Made in Canada. Khaki. Sizes XS (hat size 7), S (hat size 7 1/8), M (hat size 7 1/4), L (hat size 7 3/8), XL (hat size 7 1/2), and XXL (hat size 7 5/8).

This shirt's tightly-woven nylon fabric blocked 98% of harmful UVA and UVB rays--up to 30% more than others tested--in laboratory tests commissioned by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute. This lightweight women's shirt was judged best by virtue of its unsurpassed UV blocking ability--UPF 50+--without messy sunscreen lotions or chemical treatments that wear off or wash away. It showed no signs of shrinkage after five wash cycles, besting all other tested models and all but one in tests for tear resistance, making it ideal for outdoor activities. The open-knit construction allows for total breathability, helping keep the body dry and cool by wicking away moisture and providing an air-conditioned effect on hot days. The fabric can also be worn in the pool or surf, yet dries in minutes once out of the water. The collared shirt offers classic styling with a six-button front, a generous cut for wearing over a bathing suit, and a split bottom for comfort. Two front pockets. White. Please specify women's sizes XS (4-6), S (6-8), M (10-12), L (14-16), or XL (18). (1 lb.).

This set of four solar insect lights simply stake into the ground anywhere in your yard and harness the sun's energy to efficiently eliminate over 100 varieties of flying insects. The UV bulb turns on automatically at dusk and lures mosquitoes, flies, and other insects to eliminate them instantly with a 300-volt electric charge, providing chemical-free bug protection for up to eight hours on a full charge. An integrated solar panel requires only moderate sunlight and charges the internal batteries in eight hours. A grate surrounds the bulbs to discourage curious hands and protect wayward pets, and the housing is made from 100% stainless steel that resists damage from sun and rain. The units switch from bug zappers to accent lights at the touch of a button. Set of four. Each: 20 H x 6 3/4 Diam. (14 oz.).

Designed to be worn in dress shoes, these insoles have six springs in the heel that return some of the energy of the downward footfall back up to the body for a push off with every stride. Many foot and ankle ailments stem from the impact of the body's weight while walking, which is why the coils are positioned directly underneath the heel. The suspension coils are only 1/4 thick, making them undetectable until a step is taken. The springs will never wear down or lose their shock-absorbing capability. The insole has a honeycomb padding with valves that draw in and expel air during walking for constant circulation to keep the shoe dry. EVA padding in the forefoot cushions and supports the foot. Men's sizes S (4-6), M (7-8), L (9-10), or XL (11-13); Women's sizes S (5 1/2-7 1/2), M (8-9 1/2), L (10-11 1/2), XL (12-13 1/2).

The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute commissioned a baseball instructor to test pitching machines, and this one proved to be the best because it was the most accurate and quickly adjusted to hurl fastballs, curve balls, or sliders. Made by Jugs Sports, suppliers to professional and collegiate baseball teams, the best pitching machine consistently pitched baseballs and softballs through the strike zone, unlike lesser machines that were inaccurate and inconsistent. You can adjust the best pitching machine to throw fastballs and right- or left-handed curveballs and sliders at the turn of a dial, while other models required complicated adjustments or did not pitch sliders at all. Scoring highest for features, the best pitching machine hurls only foam and plastic balls (12 included) that mitigate a little leaguer's fear of being hit by the pitch, it adjusts for softball or baseball batting practice in less than two minutes, and its chute swivels up to 360 to launch pop-ups, fly balls, and ground balls for fielding practice. Plugs into AC. 3 1/2'-5' H x 3'-3 1/2' W. (35 lbs.).
